Show weekdays in TortoiseGit - tortoisegit

In the log messages dialog of tortoisegit, dates are written without weekday.
as opposed to TortoiseSVN
Can I have weekdays shown?

Go to TortoiseGit settings to the Dialogs 1 tab and deselect "Short date/time-formats in log messages".

Compare with unmodified feature in VS2022

From one day to another the double click feature in VS2022 was disbled, but I don't retrieve that setting anywhere.
How I can return the "compare with unmodified" feature in Git Changes usable with a double click?
Thanks
Click on ... in Git Changes tab to the right of "Changes" word and choose "Compare File as Default Action".

VS 2017: Double click in on changed file opens it instead of diff tool?

I'm using Visual Studio 2017 (latest version 15.5.3) and Beyond Compare as a diff tool and git as version control. Usually, when I double click on a changed file in the 'Changes' window, Beyond Compare opens and the diffs are shown. A couple of days ago the behavior changed. Now a double click opens the file itself in the editor instead of opening my diff tool.
When I want to view the diffs, I have to select 'Compare with unmodified...' from the context menu. So the diff tool itself still works fine. Only the behavior of the double click changed, which is quite annoying.
I searched the settings for a configuration, but didn't find anything.
Did anyone experience the same behavior?
How can I change it back?
Kind regards,
Ash
Strange no one else had this problem yet...
Finally, I downloaded the VS installer and executed repair option. After it finished, the problem disappeared.

TortoiseGit - where is the reset option for a branch?

I am using TortoiseGit 64 bit version on Windows 10. I know it has a reset option because the documentation talks about it. However, I cannot find the menu option for "Reset". I have searched the preferences to see if it needed to be added but I cannot find it anywhere. Here is a screen capture of my TortoiseGit menu.
Right now, the reset dialog can only be opened using the log dialog context menu.
cf. https://tortoisegit.org/docs/tortoisegit/tgit-dug-showlog.html
To add onto MrTux,
Go to the log dialog, right click on the commit you want to revert to and there should be a 'reset "current branch" to this' popup. If you want to clear all local changes in favor for this commit, then perform a Hard reset.
I had the same problem but couldn't figure it out from the answer here.
But the way I did it was, after I did a fetch there was the option to do a reset in the dropdown in the bottom corner of the dialog

Is there a way to show the TFS changeset number after a check-in?

Is there a way, with power tools or other extensions, to make it so that the changeset number is be displayed on an alert?
Currently it displays on the status bar, but disappears after a while, or at least make this more prominent?
Output from TFS commands shows up in Visual Studio's Output window, but you need to change the "Show output from" dropdown to "Source Control - Team Foundation". Check-ins will produce output like:
Changeset 1234567 successfully checked in.
You can setup alerts in TFS which sends you an email with the checkin information, including the changeset number. There is an limited alert editor shipped with visual studio (see in the menu Team -> Project Alerts). You can choose the option "Anything checked in"
There are also the power tools which give an editor with more options. You can then filter also on user name. But be aware that everybody should set up their own alert.

How do I do "svn st" in AnkhSVN for Visual Studio? -no text-

Just installed AnkhSVN and I see the equivalent of "svn up" but I'd prefer to run "svn st" first so that I don't just blindly update.
The next release of AnkhSVN will enable the 'Recent Changes' tab in the pending changes window. This allows the equivalent of 'svn st -u' (It shows outgoing and incoming changes).
We are still working on the usability of this view in the
daily builds.
Input welcome on the AnkhSVN users list.
There's a pending changes window you can add that will show what files you have changed in your local working copy. I usually keep it in the set of docked windows where the output window is. In general, you can also tell what status a file is in by the icon next to the file. For example, a plus sign means that it's been added.
UPDATE: Here's a guide to the icon overlays. They should be about the same as in Tortoise SVN.
